         | To be honest, I think Stable Diffusion and chatGPT have
         | improved my language skill somewhat. Especially SD text2img,
         | where even synonyms and punctuation have certain influence on
         | the outputs.

         | Maybe they'll also be a bit better at speaking naturally and
         | un-reservedly? It does seems obvious that a few would stumble,
         | with their Calculator taken away...

         | in talking to ChatGPT in messages than to you in person (they
         | could save on the drinks / dinner and just self-serve for
         | free).

       | being made public on TikTok!

       | No surprise here, people have been doing this for a long time,
       | and tinder and others used bots to engage with people early on.

       | My Tinder bot finally virtually hooked up with my match's bot.
       | Reading the chat logs made me feel really lonely though. Why is
       | it so hard to meet people? /s
